A simple and convenient method for the synthesis of nitriles by oxidation of primary amines with NaOCl in ethanol

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919708007077

The oxidation of aliphatic primary amines having α-methylene on treatment with NaOCl as an oxidant in ethanol has been found to be an effective method for the transformation of primary amines to nitriles.
